Go for it, Star child - dont have the Fleischer book just my 12th level memory bank...which is kinda overdrawn at the moment.

The intent was just to get those entries up and then lets those with the Fleischer book or their vast array of Supermanica knowledge get busy! Smiley

I think you can leave some of mine up (rather than replace them) as capsule OVERVIEWS so that the basics can be dessiminated at a glance and then delve into the more detailed entry.

Thought the Atomic Skull came much later (in the post reboot era but maybe that's another Atomic Skull) and since I stopped reading comics for the most part in the mid 70s there's plenty I dont know about!

Har! There was a Pre-Crisis Atomic Skull. When he first appeared, he was a renegade STAR Labs scientist who implanted a control device into Titano's skull in order to use him against Big Blue. He first appeared in Superman Vol. 1 #323 (September 1976).

I am going to add a Kryptonite entry, since I spent so much time complete a full list, I might as well Smiley You can all then go in and edit it by writing information about each one, and I will as well.

What the heck were the names of those critters from Krypton with big TV sets on their heads which revealled what they were thinking?


Simply, "Thought-Beasts"... Cheesy  

Rhino-like but with miraculous "flat screen" heads, since there seemed to be no picture tubes..maybe plasma screens?

They might have been accused of limited thinking as the TV screens always projected images of them chomping on the torso of whoever they intended to attack...

Alright, I'm going to start with Jimmy Olsen.  It's a doozy at 12 pages (not as long as Superman, though) so I might have to do it in installments.

Ok, I have added the Kryptonite entry! It is the largest and most comprehensive Kryptonite list on the web or in print!

Feel free to add more information to each one if you like (I only gave brief descriptions of each one), but please do not take anything out if you can help it.


Edit:

Here is a direct link: http://superman.nu/wiki/index.php/Kryptonite

But it doesn't show up here:
http://superman.nu/wiki/index.php/Category:Entries

only here:
http://superman.nu/wiki/index.php/Special:Allpages

which I notice has many articles not included in the 1st page.

   1. Digby_Selwyn
   2. Flamebird
   3. Gorgeous_Superman
   4. Kryptonite
   5. Nightwing
   6. Ugly_Superman


what is going on :?:

Only articles which are in the "Entries" category will show up on the Entries page.  Every article anyone adds, they should also add to the Entries category.  You do this by putting the following line at the end of your article:

[[Category:Entries]]

Some articles should also be in more than one category:  like Flamebird  should also be in People and Heroes.  

See this forum article for more on categories, or click on 'edit' on one of the other entries at Supermanica to see how it's done.
